Research abstract
This project represents a major advance in the elimination of malicious and otherwise destructive code. The proposed method has the potential to be the most effective tool available to detect and eliminate all harmful code and unauthorized software activities originating from a software program. Software is an integral part of most weapons and other military systems. There is a continuously growing need to integrate software from outside sources. Currently, there is no guarantee that such outside software does not contain malicious code. This proposed system performs a automated damage potential examination at the lowest levels of program execution. Complex and ineffective signature recognition is made obsolete as the proposed process certifies that a program is void of malicious or otherwise harmful code.
